Varsity Dance Set as Aftermath of Cal Game
Dancing to the music of Larry Kent and his orchestra in the colorful Rendezvous and Renaissance rooms of the Biltmore hotel, SC students will attend the sixth annual Varsity club dance following the SC-California football game Saturday night.
"We expect a sell-out,” said Burt Smith, president of the club. "Bids are now on sale at $1.50 in the ticket office of the Student Union, and lettermen and fraternity representatives will sell them today and tomorrow' on the campus. Those desiring to wait may purchase tickets at the hotel door,” he added.
This is the first all-university activity of the year to be sponsored by the Varsity club, and the organization awaits a large-scale response. Saturday night will be a closed evening as far as other campus activities are concerned.
DANCE AFFECTS FUTURE
Smith is particularly interested in seeing this dance materialize as a successful affair because the future of the organization depends upon it.
"If we can organize the lettermen and offer the university an attractive dance, as wre have planned. there is no limit to the possible expansion of the club.”
Smith said the lettermen are particularly interested in the varsity show. They would also like to see the establishment of an annual award assembly, honoring new lettermen.
Dr. Mary Sinclair Crawford, counselor of women; Dr. Francis M. Bacon, counselor of men; and Clee W. Foster, manager of operations and maintenance office, will chaperon the affair.

Staff Stages Victory March; French 'Burns
It was the Daily Trojan staff, with few exceptions, against Prof. Roy L. French, director of the School of Journalism. In the fight over the recent presidential candidates. “Boss” French was for Willkie.
The elections over and Roosevelt in office, the staff staged a victory march.
Carrying a cardboard American flag and singing “God Bless America,” staff members yesterday afternoon stormed into the “head man’s” office and demanded that he take his picture of Willkie down from his door. Then, while a staff member read the preamble to the constitution, another pinned to the wall a picture of President Roosevelt.
It was a victory march with a bonfire. Professor French burned. Commented he, “We wuz robbed.”
“It looks like it’s going to be bigger than it was last year,” said Dwight Hart, a co-chairman of the bonfire rally. “Judges will be busy today and tomorrow checking in the truckloads of scrap-wood that fraternity crews are collecting.” REFRESHMENTS SERVED Louise Reordan, working with a committee of women chosen from all the sororities, will serve hot coffee and doughnuts to the men tonight.
“The SC band, cheer leaders, Knights, and Squires will be there to make it a real rally,” said Don Mulligan, the other co-chairman of the committee.
JOHNSTON OFFICIATES Charles Johnston, ASSC president, will introduce John McPherson, student body president of the University of Califomia at Berkeley, who will bring greeting from the Califomia students to Trojans.
Hart and Mulligan are in charge of the construction. Piling of debris in such a massive strducture necessitates a careful watch to prevent the material from collapsing. BEGINS AT 5 P.M.
The rally starts at 5 p.m. tomorrow night just north of Sunset fields golf course where La Brea intersects Exposition boulevard. Students will have little trouble finding parking room, since the bonfire sight is surrounded by 300 yards of level field.
Hart said that students should be on time to see them light the fuse, because it only takes a minute for the dried pile of timber to ignite.

Dance November 15 Introduces Club on SC Campus
Functioning as a new organization and adopting the once used name, ‘Lancers,” SC non-orgs have announced the formation of an all-university society to be formally introduced to the campus at a non-org dance Friday, November 15.
Bob Moody, chairman of the group, is in charge of the dance, and Sam Roeca, committeeman, will be in charge of publicity and will act as host to the affair.
Arrangements have been made to use the Student Lounge and the adjoining tea room from 8:30 p.m. until 1 a.m.
ORCHESTRA CONSIDERED
“We had thought of getting an orchestra,” Moody said, “but the purpose of this organization is to provide amusement for as large a group as possible at a reasonable price: therefore, acting upon the suggestion of committeemen, we will have a sound recording system and lots of popular records.”
Price of admission is 50 cents a couple, or 25 cents for stags. Moody said students should try to bring a date, but that the affair is open to all non-orgs, and they needn't feel compelled to bring a partner.
In charge of entertainment and refreshments will be Mary Ruth Stagg, Dorothea Tilton, Vivienne Clark, Madeline Selizer, Catherine Colvin, and Leonora Jacobsen.
DEAN BACON CONSULTED
Formulation of the society has been underway since last August, when Moody, Roeca, and Hal Hok-er began consulting with Dean Bacon. A large group of committeemen, chosen from the files of Dean Bacon’s and Dean Crawford's offices, have convened at several weekly luncheons and also enjoyed a group party at the home of Ed Movis, 2556 Aberdeen avenue.
“We hope to have a large crowd turn out for the dance,” Moody said, “because this is only the first all-university activity for the Lancers, and many others will follow.”
French Club Sets Installation Today
Oliverose Meredith, graduate student from Berkeley, will be installed as president of Le Cercle Francais, SC French club, at a tea this afternoon at 3:30 o’clock in the tea room of the Student Union.
Other members of the cabinet to be installed include the following: Marian Jones, vice-president; and Marguerite Ellsworth, secretary-treasurer.
The musical portion of the meeting will consist of violin selections by Marguerite Ellsworth, accompanied on the piano by Martha Andrade. Mary Houston will lead the group in singing French songs.
Lang Addresses SC Ski Club
Otto Lang, assistant head ski coach at Sun Valley Lodge, Idaho, will address the first meeting of the Trojan Ski club at 3:30 p.m. today in 205 Physical Education. Students and faculty members are invited to attend.
Three sound technicolor films, “Ski Skill,” “Sun Valley Holiday,” and “The Sun Valley Ski Chase,” will be shown during the meeting. The first depicts turns and stunts by Friedl Pfeifer, an American ski instructor. It will be the first public showing of the films, all of which were taken in Sun Valley.
Ling, an Austrian, is recognized as one of the foremost ski instructors in America, according to Dick Mittler, today’s chairman of the meeting. He was formerly asistant to Hanns Schneider, instructor at St. Anton, who developed the Arl-berg technique and who was considered the best ski coach in the world. Lang will speak on sking and ski instruction.
Emphasizing the value to ski-minded students of the opportunity to hear Lang. Mittler said, “Lang is as big a man in skiing as. for instance, Howard Jones is in football.”
SC Tag Drive Funds Mount
Seven Greek Houses Pledge 100 Per Cent Support;
Barton Anticipates Complete Pledge by Tomorrow
Are you wearing your Community Chest “I GAVE” tag?
The members of seven Greek houses have contributed 100 per cent, and all others have pledged support. Those who contributed yesterday include Kappa Alpha, Phi Kappa Psi, and Kappa Sigma fraternities; Delta Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta, Zeta Tau Alpha, and Pi Beta Phi sororities.
Syd Barton, general chairman of
the drive, announced yesterday that with complete cooperation from fraternity and sorority groups, he expected a total contribution of $1000 by the end of the five-day period which is tomorrow. CONTRIBUTIONS RECORDED
As contributions from houses and non-orgs come in, the red tongue of mercury slowly rises on the thermometer that hangs over the entrance to the Student Union buUding indicating the amount received.
Barton anticipates a more successful drive than last year's which comprised $637 in contributions.
Headquarters for the SC drive to help the needy have been established in the office of the Student Council on Religion. Jane Eccles, secretary of the council, is in chargs of the funds solicited. Co-ordinators from each sorority and fraternity house, from the service organizations, and women who are working for activity points report to Miss Eccles and turn in the money solicited each day.
PERSONAL CONTACT HOPED
“These groups,” said Miss Eccles, “are to be complimented on their fine work. By Friday, we hope to have personally contacted every student on campus.”
Solicitors give pins with the words “I Gave” and tags which read “I gave to help take care of our own” to each contributor to the chest.
In many cities the Community Chest drive is the only drive permitted. Its purpose is to combine all of the drives into one and thereby establish aid for the worthiest organizations.
No Crack-Down/ Officers Announce
'Tt’s no crack-down!”
This was the emphatic statement made yesterday afternoon by a desk sergeant at the University police station regarding increased policing of University avenue by traffic officers during the past few davs.
He said the activities of officers on the street was merely routine in nature and that “crack-downs” were infrequent.
“These occur only when persistent complaints are made,” he explained.
"However, students are habitual law-breakers when it comes to parking their cars. If they want to save themselves fines and towing charges, they’d better do a bit of reforming,” warned the officer.

“Whatcha gonna do Saturday?”
“I’m gonna go ta tha
game.”
“Me, too.”
This is the sad, sad tale of two Trojan rooters who will watch Saturday’s battle from their living-room armchairs with their radio tuned in on their favorite broadcaster.
They forgot to exchange their ASSC activity-book slips for game tickets at the Student Union office.
Tonight is the deadline for tjie exchange of tickets. Because only about 1500 students have obtained their rooters’ tickets, Trojan men and women are urged to make the exchange immediately before it is too late if they plan to attend the game.
Arnold Eddy, general manager of associated students and business manager of athletics, estimates that approximately 30,000 tickets have been sold and almost twice that number of spectators are expected to attend the game.

Staff Stages Victory March; French 'Burns
It was the Daily Trojan staff, with few exceptions, against Prof. Roy L. French, director of the School of Journalism. In the fight over the recent presidential candidates. “Boss” French was for Willkie.
The elections over and Roosevelt in office, the staff staged a victory march.
Carrying a cardboard American flag and singing “God Bless America,” staff members yesterday afternoon stormed into the “head man’s” office and demanded that he take his picture of Willkie down from his door. Then, while a staff member read the preamble to the constitution, another pinned to the wall a picture of President Roosevelt.
It was a victory march with a bonfire. Professor French burned. Commented he, “We wuz robbed.”
“It looks like it’s going to be bigger than it was last year,” said Dwight Hart, a co-chairman of the bonfire rally. “Judges will be busy today and tomorrow checking in the truckloads of scrap-wood that fraternity crews are collecting.” REFRESHMENTS SERVED Louise Reordan, working with a committee of women chosen from all the sororities, will serve hot coffee and doughnuts to the men tonight.
“The SC band, cheer leaders, Knights, and Squires will be there to make it a real rally,” said Don Mulligan, the other co-chairman of the committee.
JOHNSTON OFFICIATES Charles Johnston, ASSC president, will introduce John McPherson, student body president of the University of Califomia at Berkeley, who will bring greeting from the Califomia students to Trojans.
Hart and Mulligan are in charge of the construction. Piling of debris in such a massive strducture necessitates a careful watch to prevent the material from collapsing. BEGINS AT 5 P.M.
The rally starts at 5 p.m. tomorrow night just north of Sunset fields golf course where La Brea intersects Exposition boulevard. Students will have little trouble finding parking room, since the bonfire sight is surrounded by 300 yards of level field.
Hart said that students should be on time to see them light the fuse, because it only takes a minute for the dried pile of timber to ignite.

Dance November 15 Introduces Club on SC Campus
Functioning as a new organization and adopting the once used name, ‘Lancers,” SC non-orgs have announced the formation of an all-university society to be formally introduced to the campus at a non-org dance Friday, November 15.
Bob Moody, chairman of the group, is in charge of the dance, and Sam Roeca, committeeman, will be in charge of publicity and will act as host to the affair.
Arrangements have been made to use the Student Lounge and the adjoining tea room from 8:30 p.m. until 1 a.m.
ORCHESTRA CONSIDERED
“We had thought of getting an orchestra,” Moody said, “but the purpose of this organization is to provide amusement for as large a group as possible at a reasonable price: therefore, acting upon the suggestion of committeemen, we will have a sound recording system and lots of popular records.”
Price of admission is 50 cents a couple, or 25 cents for stags. Moody said students should try to bring a date, but that the affair is open to all non-orgs, and they needn't feel compelled to bring a partner.
In charge of entertainment and refreshments will be Mary Ruth Stagg, Dorothea Tilton, Vivienne Clark, Madeline Selizer, Catherine Colvin, and Leonora Jacobsen.
DEAN BACON CONSULTED
Formulation of the society has been underway since last August, when Moody, Roeca, and Hal Hok-er began consulting with Dean Bacon. A large group of committeemen, chosen from the files of Dean Bacon’s and Dean Crawford's offices, have convened at several weekly luncheons and also enjoyed a group party at the home of Ed Movis, 2556 Aberdeen avenue.
“We hope to have a large crowd turn out for the dance,” Moody said, “because this is only the first all-university activity for the Lancers, and many others will follow.”

The members of seven Greek houses have contributed 100 per cent, and all others have pledged support. Those who contributed yesterday include Kappa Alpha, Phi Kappa Psi, and Kappa Sigma fraternities; Delta Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta, Zeta Tau Alpha, and Pi Beta Phi sororities.

the drive, announced yesterday that with complete cooperation from fraternity and sorority groups, he expected a total contribution of $1000 by the end of the five-day period which is tomorrow. CONTRIBUTIONS RECORDED
As contributions from houses and non-orgs come in, the red tongue of mercury slowly rises on the thermometer that hangs over the entrance to the Student Union buUding indicating the amount received.
Barton anticipates a more successful drive than last year's which comprised $637 in contributions.
Headquarters for the SC drive to help the needy have been established in the office of the Student Council on Religion. Jane Eccles, secretary of the council, is in chargs of the funds solicited. Co-ordinators from each sorority and fraternity house, from the service organizations, and women who are working for activity points report to Miss Eccles and turn in the money solicited each day.
PERSONAL CONTACT HOPED
“These groups,” said Miss Eccles, “are to be complimented on their fine work. By Friday, we hope to have personally contacted every student on campus.”
Solicitors give pins with the words “I Gave” and tags which read “I gave to help take care of our own” to each contributor to the chest.
In many cities the Community Chest drive is the only drive permitted. Its purpose is to combine all of the drives into one and thereby establish aid for the worthiest organizations.

“Whatcha gonna do Saturday?”
“I’m gonna go ta tha
game.”
“Me, too.”
This is the sad, sad tale of two Trojan rooters who will watch Saturday’s battle from their living-room armchairs with their radio tuned in on their favorite broadcaster.
They forgot to exchange their ASSC activity-book slips for game tickets at the Student Union office.
Tonight is the deadline for tjie exchange of tickets. Because only about 1500 students have obtained their rooters’ tickets, Trojan men and women are urged to make the exchange immediately before it is too late if they plan to attend the game.
Arnold Eddy, general manager of associated students and business manager of athletics, estimates that approximately 30,000 tickets have been sold and almost twice that number of spectators are expected to attend the game.
